Inner Work

Complete acceptance is
a tough pill to swallow,
but once it is taken
it helps dissolve sorrows.

To truly surrender
is a difficult deed,
letting go of control
watering planted seeds.

A secured self-esteem
is a slippery slope,
to balance the ego
provides inner hope.

The fruits from all labor
presents life with awards,
Self-work and improvements
offer greater rewards.

Outer viewed projections,
emerge from deep within.
Reflected perceived views,
can shed light on false wins.

Looking into the mind
could empower all dreams,
acknowledge self power
let it flow like a stream.

Gardens

In the garden, I find hope,
that fulfills my need to cope.
I find music in the breeze,
mixed fresh scents put me at ease.
Hear the birds as they fly high,
rainbows enhance bright blue skies.
Dandelions dance in air,
fulfill wishes, mend all cares.

In the garden hands get dirty,
picturesque scenes create stories.
Fireflies flutter each evening,
carry a clear serene feeling.
Smile upon the winking moon,
wonder why time flew so soon.
Yawn for sleep under star lights,
as warm winds sweep a clear night.

Forever Bond

We share a spark
held deep within,
when thoughts turn dark,
it lights our wins.

Pure reflection,
two perfect halves.
True connection,
tickles our laughs.

Giant weakness
fuels profound strength,
brings completeness
to endless lengths.

Soft little hands,
solid embrace.
Transparent band
made of sheer grace.

Contagious smile
makes my heart yours,
Divine love piles,
always assures.

Infinite bond
forever grows,
expands beyond
our inner glow.

Hymn

A mother’s song can make fears fall,
paves a bright way so dreams stand tall.
Breaks barriers to unfasten chains,
clears away darkness so light gains.

Soft lullabies builds to then weave,
a mother’s song helps hearts believe.
Creates strong goals wrapped in pure bliss,
security fills cold abyss.

A mother’s song eases with peace,
protective force cause pain to cease.
Her children’s joy always comes first,
will sacrifice to cure their thirst.

Sweet serene hum carries sheer love,
a mother’s song hugs like a glove.
Solid armor shields from cold storms,
connection extends past the norm.

A mother’s song is always pure,
intentions set to reassure.
Guides towards positive outcomes,
cleans up the mess, picks up the crumbs.

Lyrical prayers twinkle and shine,
a mother’s song sounds so divine.
Infinite link, forever strong,
endless care in a mother’s song.

Happy Mother’s Day 💕

Expressed

Silence is hidden,
inside of your eyes.
Lips full of answers
smothered with wise lies.

All truths are revealed
exposed by your eyes.
Back-peddling words
disclosed by surprise.

Awkward discomfort
expressed in your eyes.
No words are needed,
tears glue our demise.

Hopes have been ruined
as seen in your eyes,
you want one more win
yet despise the prize.

My unspoken words
scream loud in my eyes,
they say their farewells
with one breathless sigh.

Newfound intentions
live within my eyes.
Self-preservation
is my greatest tie.

Best wishes and love
shine from both our eyes,
mute words go unheard
our eyes say goodbye.

Angelic Tears

When an angel cries,
raindrops hit a village,
frustrations and sighs,
transform into privilege.

Nurturing the land,
allowing full bloom,
warm sunlight expands
full bright rainbow hues.

When an angel cries,
tears fall upon steeples,
blessings flutter high,
guiding aimless people.

Prayers touch the sky,
caressing the stars.
Wipes sadness from eyes,
removing old scars.

When an angel cries,
showers drench the jungle.
For each tree that dies,
and for natures struggles.

Agonizing tears,
not meant to destroy.
At times carry cheers,
along with great joy.

Mislead

Seductive words,
consume my skin,
graceful like birds,
to cover sins.

Rips me in half,
flirtatious war,
invokes my laugh,
ego keeps score.

Deep thoughtless sigh,
exposes soul,
keep my head high,
game of control.

A stare so still,
it keeps you stuck,
kidnaps free will,
grants me good luck.

Deceptive ways,
hide on your face.
I look away,
to win first place.

Set myself free,
regain my spot.
You try to flee,
I tie your knots.

Sketch into Reality

Stop as dreams materialize,
stare as solid views form life.
Thoughts suddenly theorize,
questions laced with sparks of strife.

Fears and worries set off wars,
watch dark smoky clouds explore.
Inner battles feel so raw,
regain light then let faith draw.

Exhale what hearts want to feel,
let inner light take the wheel,
as positive quickly heals,
everyday becomes ideal.

Golden visions fly up high,
a precision traced skyline.
Sketch within the mind and eye,
to form a divine design.

Absorb time, float throughout space,
bask in a serene embrace.
Destiny holds peace in place,
truth and fiction interlace.

Endless horizons shine bright,
with a gift of pure insight.
Clarity offers delight,
grasp it quickly, hug it tight.

Reflective Memories

Ran fast outside, skinned hands and knees,
inwardly cried, pain flew with ease.
Painted a smile, grabbed something sweet,
sat for a while, enjoyed my treat.

An icicle eased away pain,
reminded me of simple gains.
The playful times that could not stay,
within a blink, just flew away.

This frozen pop, served as a cure,
made my heart hop, felt immature.
It brought me back to my childhood,
when hard times slipped to preserve good.

A moment to enjoy the rain,
erased adulting from my brain.
It made me dance, I laughed and swayed,
enjoyed hopscotch, felt joy cascade.

Happiness spread, peace well obtained,
all hurt soon fled, while joy maintained.
Inner love stung, felt so secure,
forever young and self assured.

That fall became an even trade,
granted me a mental parade.
the discomfort was worth the strain,
powerful emotions remained.
